We need to swiftly transform No Kings from a Democratic Party spectacle to a grass roots resistance movement.

    At my No King’s, a politician made their request for us to vote for them. I will consider it, as they dared to be amongst the plebian rabble, rather than the ivory halls of the bluebloods.

      Look at their actions and their voting record. Have they voted against human rights for minority groups? Have they supported Citizen’s United? Have they contributed to our current surveillance state? Have they supported genocide? Have they beat around bush regarding healthcare as a human right?

      If so, kick them to the curb.

          What? No. Forget parties for a second and ask the questions of anyone running for anything. It’s about to be midterm primary season in the US.

            Don’t forget relevant information, don’t delete context and nuance. That’s just ignorance.

            Vote whoever you want in the primary, but come midterms its time to lock tf in.
